	== Comments ==		== Comments ==
	* "Erik Morales lost a fight but won millions of hearts. The Mexican warrior, given little chance even to compete with strapping Marcos Maidana, gave the hard-punching Argentine all he can handle only to lose a majority decision in a 12-round junior welterweight fight Saturday at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas. And, remarkably, he did it with limited sight because his right eye was more or less closed in the first round. Maidana was the aggressor throughout, throwing and landing more punches than the 34-year-old from Tijuana. However, Morales, sharper and more resilient than any of us could've imagined, took Maidana's best punches and consistently landed the cleaner shots... The scores - 114-114, 116-112 and 116-112 - indicate a fairly convincing victory for Maidana. But make no mistake: This was a war, the kind that made Morales a fan favorite in the first place. Morales, looking much like the warrior of old, shocked us all by taking the best Maidana had to offer and dishing it right back in what many will have seen as a very close, difficult-to-score fight from beginning to end." - Michael Rosenthal of [[The Ring Magazine]] [http://ringtv.craveonline.com/blog/164827-morales-gives-inspirational-performance-in-defeat]		*"Erik Morales lost a fight but won millions of hearts.
